Spanish
Long ago, in certain regions of Spain, the
bride wore a black silk dress and mantilla.
Orange blossoms in her hair was the flower
of the day. The groom wore a tucked shirt
which had been hand embroidered by the
bride.
A Spanish Groom gives sometimes gives his
Bride thirteen coins in memory of Christ and
the twelve apostles. The Bride carries them
in a small bag during the Wedding Ceremony
as a symbol that the Groom promises to
support and care for her. |
